Me and my lad went to Owlerton a couple of years ago to watch the Aces, and around heat 10 he noticed just how many "in memory of" heats there were.. And, being 20 at the time, thought it somewhat amusing, asking who would have sponsored the heats if their fans didnt die... We then went to watch the return on the Monday at the NSS and quickly also picked up on how many "in memory of" heats there were... My Dad, (his Grandad), passed away in February and just before this season started he said.. "At least we can sponsor a heat at Belle Vue now!".. I blame the parents....

I think you’re pointing the finger at the wrong rider here. If anyone’s let the team down so to say, it’s NHJ. Another crash for him, which seems to be a recurring thing this season, coupled with a massive drop in his average and “poor machinery.” No doubting there is a rider there, but I think this time it hasn’t worked out. Question is, if he’s picked up a long term injury, who can we bring in to replace? -

Again, not like he’s left it with a fault is it. Things happen and stuff breaks for crying out loud. Get over yourself mate. -

Jacobsen on a 3 point average now, so with the 5% allowance for a home guest not much if any choice at 3.15 -
While I don't agree with much of what the petition requests, and therefore won't be signing it, I do agree that riders should commit to riding a full season in the UK if they want to ride here. Not every rider is going to find a team place in Poland, far from it, if they want to take their chances fair enough. British Speedway can't afford to be granting facilities left right and centre due to riders being elsewhere it's so damaging to the sport in the UK. Many riders have played the "I'm going to concentrate on Poland" card in the past only to come back mid way through the season with their tails between their legs due to not being picked to ride. There's only, what? 3 divisions of 8 teams in Poland, that's 168 team places in a very very crowded market. Don't get me wrong I'm not blaming the riders solely for British Speedway's ills the promoters have to take massive responsibility for allowing the sport to get to the position it is currently in but rider demands certainly hasn't made things any easier for promoters.

British final 15th August

Wonder how many drop outs there will be after the Friday/Saturday meeting would think there’s at least 4 of that 16 won’t be there Sunday -
Far from it- but your suggestions are ridiculous. The sport needs big changes, but telling riders its Britain and nowhere else would just result in the majority packing up to go abroad. Poland pays, more than any British club could or will. and these boys have such short careers, giving their bodies and often livelihoods for this sport and you want to be the one to tell them to cut their options and do Britain only? Get real.

One I increasingly dislike is "rider 1 off of gate two, rider 2 off of gate 4, grammatical nonsense, "from or in" would be perfectly acceptable. 🤣

Yeah, hard not to think Vinnie has let the team down tonight, not what was required. -

3 weeks to sort a bike out no excuse -
"We’ve sat scratching our heads; is it the price of fuel that is now putting people off coming on top of everything else? Last time against Leicester, was it the heat that kept people away?" No it was Dan Thompson being sat in the pits somewhere in Poland that put me off paying for fuel and entrance to watch my "team"

"we’ve got a new heat sponsor coming on board for the first time tonight" does this mean another Tigers fan has died? As whenever I attend most heats seem to be in the memory of somebody or other🤷♂️
